RAVE CD Manual download and use for dummies.

Land Rover RAVE CD Manual: download and use for dummies.
I've sent out Rave CDs and linked people to the downloads many times over the years, so I thought it was time to write a simple guide on where to get it online and how to easily use it. This could be a forum sticky somewhere since it comes up often enough.

RAVE CD Multi-CD: contains all vehicles, may be missing some information as it’s only slightly larger than one of the individual images: http://personalgeeks.com/lrdisco/ , thanks to adriatic04 at Dweb for hosting. This is the RAVE image that I use, it’s worked great for years…haven’t found anything missing.RAVE CD Multi-CD MIRROR: This is one .iso split into 6 .rar files which will need to be combined (extracted) using WinRAR or a similar program before mounting the image. You also will have to wait between downloads without an account. (PITA, avoid if possible, but they’re here if needed):

The program should autorun the image, but if it doesn’t, you can find it under “My Computer” as if you’ve got a disk in your CD-ROM drive. The RAVE program runs through Adobe Acrobat 4.0 on the disk, you won’t need Acrobat installed to use RAVE.
If you’re unable to get this to work or want to try an easier option, you may be able to simply extract the image file and run Rave.exe, but there is no guarantee that this will work as I haven’t tried it.

I really hope this helps everyone, if you have any questions feel free to send me a PM.

Sorry to say, you haven't dumbed this down quite enough for those of us with very little computer expertise...I can't get this to work no matter what I try. I've downloaded and installed the RAVE manual and can't get it to open, burned it to CD and can't get it to open, downloaded and installed Daemon and about all I can seem to do is look at the pictures in a slideshow...I'm truly lost here.

Dan, once you have loaded the image file in Daemon tools, open My Computer and double click on the new RAVE "drive". In the first folder there should be a file called RAVE.exe. Double click on that and the app should start. Here's where my RAVE.exe sits on my comp.

Thanks alot. I got it to work.
Looks great.
THe only question that i have is when i open the engine repair manual it says 2000 is it the same for the 1996 P38A.
The reason that i ask is that on disk 2 the cover says for p38.
Will this work for me?
